I Have a Possible Idea What Could Cause My Demise in the Future

I have been doing some reading and I have some indications that I may be headed towards being a diabetic at some point in the future. Obviously a timetable and a decisive conclusion is something I cannot be sure of, but certain symptoms I seem to possess at least raise questions of a possibility of entering into that status at some point; when would seem to be a key question.

The symptons which are raising questions are several: Increased and constant thirst, although that does go up and down in frequency and intensity; vision issues which seem to be only worsening; the recent case of the fire ant bites which have been tremendously slow to heal relative to my personal historic norm for other previous injuries; numbness and pain in my fingers and hands, and on rare occasions with some of my toes; dry and itchy skin at times; and a fruity taste which seems somewhat regular in my mouth which is only abated by consumption of strong foods to the contrary such as milk or ice cream; tomato sauce; salads and vegetables; and meats.

I will continue to try to be observant and aware of what is happening to me on a physiological level. My increasing mental health issues which are being strongly exacerabated by my persistent inability to get a sniff of employment and work which is leading to stress and depression can only make matters worse in a number of ways as my diet suffers from lack of money resulting in budget conscious choices which are not always ideal.

While drawing a worst case scenario from observed conditions that very well could be coincidental and not related is not necessarily an edict for making a diagnosis, it does require me to be vigilant and aware of the consequences of aging and not being able to live an ideal and optimum healthy lifestyle. There also seems to be genetic issues in play from what I understand but this not entirely clear.

Of course, I am not going to really know at any point soon as I lack any way to afford to have a professional medical study conducted and make that determination. And that is not to going to change while I continue to live in Cheyenne, and possibly even after I return to Colorado in 2010, 2011, or later, as the hope for relocating has dimmed significantly with worthwhile and non-J O B (Just Over Broke) employment seemingly unlikely at this point and for quite some time to come.
